POLICE launched a new search for Madeleine McCann in a desperate “last throw of the dice”.

Officers with pickaxes, shovels and chainsaws began a fresh operation to find the girl who vanished from Praia da Luz, Portugal, in 2007, aged three.

Cops were seen clearing dense vegetation, digging near an old farmhouse and checking wells a few miles from the Algarve resort.

The house was reportedly once owned by prime suspect, German Christian Brueckner.
